After months of speculation, Iran has finally dismissed the claims that the Stuxnet virus actually had attacked the country nuclear power plant. The statement regarding the stuxnet virus came just after the UN inspector commented that the virus has damaged an important key in the nuclear facility. But if there was no attack in the first place then why such a huge hype about the virus.

Iran did say that the virus was present in the country and that it had caught it before it reached the centrifuge controllers in the nuclear facility. On the other hand the officials have also accused the west, that it was trying to disrupt their nuclear program, even though it is for peaceful purposes.

Iran has always told the UN and also the west that it is not building a nuclear weapon and the whole nuclear program is concentrating on the country’s energy purposes only. Prior to this, one of the top authorities of the country has said “From more than a year ago, Westerners tried to implant the virus into our nuclear facilities in order to disrupt our activities but our young scientists stopped the virus at the very same spot they wanted to penetrate.”
